Opportunity Summary:
The Bureau of Land Management (BLM) Nevada State Office announced a discretionary federal funding opportunity titled "BLM NV State Office Riparian Service Team Project 1 and Geodatabase Project 2." Applicants are required to identify which effort they are applying for by specifying either Project 1 or Project 2 in their application. The opportunity is issued as a cooperative agreement, meaning the BLM expects to have substantial involvement during the period of performance rather than simply issuing funds with minimal engagement.
The purpose of this funding is to support work that improves riparian and wetland health across Nevada through hands-on, site-based support and capacity building. The partner selected under this program would help deliver practical problem solving at specific sites, provide training and education, and support technical assistance related to riparian and wetland management. The scope described includes assessment and monitoring activities as well as grazing management support and related management guidance. In plain terms, BLM is looking for a partner that can help evaluate conditions on the ground, help plan and implement management responses, and build skills among land managers and stakeholders so riparian and wetland areas are better protected and maintained.
A key administrative detail in the announcement is that the opportunity was modified only to extend the application deadline. The original closing date was August 5, 2011, and it was extended to September 1, 2011. The agency states there were no other changes to the notice besides the deadline extension. The posting date is July 25, 2011, with a creation date of August 2, 2011, and the opportunity was set to be archived on September 30, 2011.
This opportunity is released under the Cooperative Ecosystem Studies Units (CESU) program framework. CESUs are collaborative partnerships designed to connect federal agencies with universities, nonprofits, and other partners to deliver research, technical assistance, and education. The announcement emphasizes that this CESU context is central to the award, reflecting an intent to use a partner with strong technical expertise and an ability to provide training and applied assistance tied to ecosystem management needs.
Funding details indicate an estimated total funding amount of $350,000, with an award ceiling of $350,000 and an award floor of $50,000. BLM anticipated making two awards, which aligns with the two-part structure (Project 1 and Project 2). The funding activity category is Natural Resources, and the opportunity is associated with CFDA number 15.231, Fish, Wildlife and Plant Conservation Resource Management. There is no cost sharing or matching requirement stated, which means applicants are not required to provide non-federal matching funds as a condition of eligibility (though voluntary leverage can sometimes still be viewed favorably depending on the full announcement).
Eligibility is listed as "unrestricted," meaning it is broadly open to any type of entity, subject to any clarifications that would have been included in the full announcement under the "Additional Information on Eligibility" section. Because the notice directs applicants to the application package for full instructions, applicants would need to follow the detailed requirements and any CESU-related conditions included in that complete announcement.
For applicants needing the complete instructions and application package, the announcement directs users to download materials via the APPLICATION tab in the posting system.

Eykelbosh, Grants and Agreements Specialist, at 775-861-6740, with email addresses gretcheneykelbosh@blm.gov and geykelbosh@blm.gov.
